Family Days Out

A one-to-one, two-hour exclusive, behind the scenes experience with one of our dedicated elephant keepers. You can enjoy giving our elephants their breakfast and hiding treats in their enclosure, this is an experience you'll never forget!

Come face to face with a Pride of Lions. Go behind the scenes and help prepare the meat, followed by an exclusive up close encounter with the magnificent lions. Join our keeper in an exclusive area and feed a lion (from a safe distance of course!), whilst learning all about the family of lions. Lion encounters are at 10am Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday and must be prebooked.

This fantastic opportunity takes children behind the scenes for an exclusive experience with animals from around the world. Children can get up close and hands on with some of the amazing animals including the mob of Meerkats, reptiles, Giant Tortoises and many other exciting animals.

Let the keepers introduce you to some of their African animals. You will learn about their everyday care and will be able to accompany the keepers into some behind the scenes areas.
